It's doable but using ifup to enable fcron pulling seems to me like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut while dbus signal is like a groom knocking on your door to wake you up

Using if-up.d/if-down.d is quite easy to use but limited to network automation. dbus allow me to automatize many things. I like dbus
